Weight Management

Weight gain and especially stubborn and unexpected weight gain around the middle, is one of the key complaints I see at The Prior Clinic.

I totally understand how frustrating this can be, especially if you feel that you’ve been doing everything right with your diet and lifestyle. Weight gain affects how we feel in our clothes and can dent our confidence. Excess weight, especially around the midriff and organs can also be a risk factor for a number of health issues.

It’s important to know that there are some natural in shifts in the way we store fat and where we store fat during the perimenopause due to hormonal changes. Fortunately, by learning how to work with these hormone changes you can minimise weight gain during this period.

You may be relieved to hear that we don’t subscribe to eating less and exercising more, counting calories, calorie deficits, counting macros or ‘going keto’. You have probably tried all of these and find that either they don’t work, or that you can’t stick to them.

I offer a number of different approaches so that I can help you select one that is going to work for you. You may be an ‘all or nothing’ person in which case a more prescriptive programme such as Metabolic Balance ® might suit you. Or you may be looking for an approach that is more relaxed and holistic whilst still being effective, in which case I’d recommend my signature 8-Week Reset & Rebalance Programme.

Whichever path you choose, I take a 360-degree view of your diet and lifestyle and support you to make lasting change in a way that feels good, fits into your lifestyle and helps you reach your weight loss goal.

It’s not only your diet and exercise that play a role in weight balance, but also your sleep, stress levels, gut health and toxic exposure – all of which can hamper your efforts to lose weight and keep it off.
